-###Installation###
+###[Installation Instructions](https://sourceforge.net/p/vido/wiki/Vido%20Installation)###

-**Prerequisites**
-You need python 3, python-gobject & youtube-dl installed. Ffmpeg is a recommended dependency which will help in downloading and merging video & audio tracks, if available separately on a URL.  Most linux distros have python3 & python-gobject installed out of the box, ffmpeg is available in most linux distro repositories. **youtube-dl** can be installed using either the repositories or by using pip. Pip is the preferred way of installing youtube-dl. youtube-dl script updates frequently since many websites change their site structure regularly and youtube-dl has to adapt to the new structure for fetching videos. Pip version, maintained by the developers is the fastest way to get those changes. Often OS repositories do not keep up with these changes and hence can break downloading from the recently modified sites.   
-
-*Installing youtube-dl using pip*
-Remove youtube-dl, if installed using OS repositories & install python3 pip from the repositories. Open terminal and issue the following command
-~~~
-sudo pip install youtube-dl
